New Construction

This research tries to design a modular part suitable for construction, with new materials and manufacturing processes. Polymers and 3D printing are the key elements in the process. It is about implanting a new model of modular part that is able to replace the conventional brick. With this research, we want to make known the new construction processes derived from 3D printing and how we can improve the existing technology. The main objective is to design a modular part, using additive manufacturing systems and plastic materials. Then we are going to determine the physical characteristics that the pieces must have, and the geometric possibilities that the manufacturing process allows us, as well as the materials that the pieces will be made. These pieces will be subject to all the actual tests to ceramic pieces, according to the current standard. Additionally, we will analyze the results obtained and compare them with an expensive ceramic brick to assess the advantages obtained. Finally, we will determine some conclusions derived from these investigations, and propose new study proposals. With this research, we intend to demonstrate that, although conventional brick are basic elements of construction and fulfils its functions perfectly, it is time to adapt the new technologies to the constructive methods.ResumenEste estudio trata de diseñar una pieza modular apropiada para la construcción mediante nuevos procesos de producción y nuevos materiales.

Abstract In recent years, FDM technology (Fused Deposition Modelling) has become one of the most widely-used rapid prototyping methods for various applications. This method is based on fused fibre material deposition on a drop-down platform, which offers the opportunity to design and introduce new materials, including composites. The material most commonly used in FDM is ABS, followed by PC, PLA, PPSF, ULTEM9085 and mixtures thereof. Recently, work has been done on the possibility of applying ABS blends: steel powders, aluminium, or even wood ash. Unfortunately, most modern commercial systems are closed, preventing the use of any materials other than those of the manufacturer. For this reason, the Department of Manufacturing Systems (KSW) of AGH University of Science and Technology, Faculty of Mechanical Engineering And Robotics purchased a 3D printer with feeding material from trays reel, which allows for the use of other materials. In addition, a feedstock production system for the 3D printer has been developed and work has started on the creation of new composite materials utilising ceramics.

Medical devices are important diagnosis and therapy tools for several diseases which include a wide range of products. Technological advances in this area have been proposed to reduce adverse complication incidences. New technologies and manufacturing processes, as well as the development of new materials or medical devices with modified surface and the use of biodegradable polymeric devices such as a substrate for cell culture in the field of tissue engineering, have attracted considerable attention in recent years by the scientific community intended to produce medical devices with superior properties and morphology. This review article focused on implantable devices, addresses the major advances in the biomedical field related to the devices manufacture processes such as 3D printing and hot melting extrusion, and the use of polymer matrices composed of copolymers, blends, nanocomposites or grafted with antiproliferative drugs for manufacturing and/or coating the devices surface.

When developing a high-speed contact suspension for railways electrified with alternating current, it is important to ensure that the electric rolling stock passes the neutral insert without turning off the current and without reducing the speed of movement. The article provides an analysis of previously developed devices in the field of power supply of electrified railways of single-phase alternating current, in which an attempt was made to pass an electric rolling stock of a neutral insert without disconnecting the load. The device of isolating coupling of a catenary and a neutral insert for high-speed railway lines electrified on alternating current is described. In this case, the passage of the neutral insert is carried out under current and braking of the electric rolling stock will not occur. Among other things, to improve the efficiency of high-speed contact suspension for railways electrified with alternating current, it is proposed to use new materials and new technologies that can be used in the device of insulating coupling of the catenary

This document condenses the results obtained when 3D printing lenses and their potential use as diffraction gratings using Digital Light Processing (DLP), as an additive manufacturing technique. This project investigated the feasibility of using DLP additive manufacturing for producing custom designed lenses and gratings. DLP was identified as the preferred manufacturing technology for gratings fabrication. Diffraction gratings take advantage of the anisotropy, inherent in additive manufacturing processes, to produce a collated pattern of multiple fringes on a substrate with completely smooth surfaces. The gratings are transmissive and were manufactured with slit separations of 10, 25 and 50 μm. More than 50 samples were printed at various build angles and mechanically treated for maximum optical transparency. The variables of the irradiance equation were obtained from photographs taken with an optical microscope. These values were used to estimate theoretical irradiance patterns of a diffraction grating and compared against the experimental 3-D printed grating. The resulting patterns were found to be remarkably similar in amplitude and distance between peaks when compared to theoretical values.
